Mike,

Hi David.....

These were made up and privately published.....

Here is from the introduction for the booklet Norfolk Regiment 9th Foot.....

The following is a list of the 3rd and 4th Battalion of the Norfolk Regiment's attestation papers. I have listed them as they are in each box, as it is easier to find them that way.

So basically it is a list, First Names, Last Name, Place of Birth/Enlistment and where to find them in Kew.....

For instance I checked the 3 Norfolk Regiment medals that I have and found two listed giving me the First Name, Militia Battalion and Town of Birth.....

Now I know that their documents exist.....

Mike
